This continues until all +// functions in the executing goroutine have stopped, in reverse order.

If recover is called outside the deferred function it will +// not stop a panicking sequence. In this case, or when the goroutine is not +// panicking, or if the argument supplied to panic was nil, recover returns +// nil.
